![Page 9: “All of a sudden you’re in charge... ...and you have no idea how to do this job.”](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56814880550346895db58cb2/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Why certification?
Quality continuing education is vital to quality patient care, as recognized by many …States for re-licensure [MOL]Specialty societies and Boards [MOC]Hospitals [credentialing committees]
![Page 10: “All of a sudden you’re in charge... ...and you have no idea how to do this job.”](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56814880550346895db58cb2/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Why now?
The integrity of the CME Enterprise is being called into questionWho is funding CME and what is their
agenda? What is the prevalence of bias?Who should be producing CME activities?
![Page 11: “All of a sudden you’re in charge... ...and you have no idea how to do this job.”](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56814880550346895db58cb2/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The Goal of Certification
To provide a method whereby employers, grantors, and learners
can be assured that the person planning, implementing, and evaluating a CME activity
has a minimum level of relevant experience and knowledge.

A certificate goes on the wall
Certification goes on the business card
